I have inoperable hydrocephalus. I have a vp shunt, but now I suffer from extreme headaches every day. The doctor has prescribed Oxycontin 40mg. twice daily in addition to Oxycocet and over the counter Extra Strength Tylenol for breakthrough pain. But now, my pharmacist tells me she won't carry the Oxycontin anymore because of the abuse. It's being sold on the street. Well, I've never sold any of my pills, but I'm worried if this drug is taken off the market. I get 60 per month and in a 30-day month that leaves me one day in suffering. I'm wondering if anybody else is experiencing a problem getting the prescription narcotic medications they need.
